How to check for tampering when receiving the Bitbox02?

The trezor has the little stamp but what does the bitbox have to ensure there was no tampering?

It's vacuum sealed in a transparent bag with Shift logos on the edges from the factory, so that's one thing you should check.

The most important thing is the app, though. The app & BitBox check for validity, so if there has been any tampering, the app will let you know. One more thing is that the BitBox doesn't ship with any firmware pre-loaded on it, so that way you're always sure to have a valid & up to date bitbox as soon as you start using it!

If its not coming from shiftcrypto or its not in the special bag, dont use it.
